No. If you are on kolonopin it is a Benson as well and will not show up as xanax just benzodiazipine. I have never seen a test that test for different benzos.
Actually, it can depend on the type of test your doctor is using. If it is one of the less expensive, non-certified tests, then they are known to show false positives anywhere from 4 to 50% of the time.
Thus, the false positive could have been caused by the Klonopin, since it is another Benzodiazepine and therefore is a relative of the Xanax and medications that are in the same families are the ones that are most commonly known to cause false positives for each other.

Has your doctor said anything else about it, or retested you?
Benzos can definitely be broken down to determine what kind of benzo it is!!! Xanax is alprazolam, Klonopin is clonazopam, Valium is diazopam, etc (please excuse my spelling). Ativan & a few more are other examples. A general drug test most likely will just show these meds as benzos(bc all of these are under the benzodiazopine category(again please excuse my spelling), however it can be broken down to determine exactly what one did take! So please be careful, if someone wants the drug test from you & want to know exactly what is in your system they can find out. So if you have a valid script for-lets say-xanax but the test showed up for clonazopam(klonopin) instead of or with the alprazolam(xanax), you will have a positive drug screen.
I am on a drug court program I tested positive for benzo I have not taken any I do take tylenol ons and have been during other drug screens and they have been fine but my boyfriend takes colodipen and he put 5 of them n my bottle an took them out later that day is it possible the residue from them made me test positive if so can the detect that I didn't take them when the test is sent to the lab?
Autopsy,said my husband had near lethal amount of xanax in his system.He was prescribed xanax by Dr.and took them as prescribed. Is there anything else that would cause this.
